This game is a nice retro change of pace compared to the majority out there.
One thing I noticed you have to read the HELP and pay attention to the short tutorial. I liked the Difficulty levels feature, but you cannot change it during gameplay. Tried it on Hardcore and it was too much for me. Had to create a new profile and reduce the Difficulty.. The game gets better after the first chapter with a lot of nice HO scenes. There are a lot of puzzles some easy some challenging. In between stages movies are bad but do the job in telling the story. Apart from Maria’s irritating voice the rest was quite nice.
GAMEPLAY: You play HOS in the form of lists, then the same scene with outlines. Green Items will usually take you to a new screen for a puzzle or another HOG. Than back to the main screen. MECHANICS: You have Zoom-in, pan and a Mini map that tells you where you are. Nice features but hardly ever used.
